Gang,
Just put the SSB board in my K2 [S/N 4858]. I have tried my Shure 444 with
the K2 and seem to have no drive. I think I will try a portable telephone
headset. I will need to get some bias for the mike from the K2 then I'll find
out if I have a problem with the SSB board or my old tru
Any unused heil icm mikes with pl2t boom for k2 or mh2 hand mics out there?

In addition to Nick's comments, these days "cheap" and "nonstandard" are no
longer synonyms. Like optics and other highly-complex precision
manufacturing processes, automation has brought the price of high-quality
mic elements down to a few dollars. Almost all the various microphones sold

Hear, hear!
I have an "official" MH-2, and the element in it went south. Elecraft says
"Call Bob". Bob's website says send lots of money, the mic, and wait a
while.
The Radio Shack element was $1.95, looks identical to the Heil element, and
works great. The original dynamic element of the mic (fr

Hi Fred,
The manufacturer of the MH2 microphone discontinued that model and we
have been looking for a replacement. We are in discussions with another
manufacturer now for a replacement hand mic, but it will be a couple of
months before we can get it in.
Fortunately we designed the K2 and KS

As Eric indicated, the K2 microphone configuration header can be
plugged/wired to work with most any microphone having an 8 pin mic plug.
Obtaining a microphone is easy - if you want to go the inexpensive route,
pick up a CB microphone, they are plentiful and if it doesn't come with an 8

Fred,
After lots of testing QRPproject is selling the Kenwood MC 43 as best choice
together with the K2. It generates an excellent SSB signal, it´s size meets
the K2 look and it can be 1:1 connected at the K2 Microphon port.

Werner and all,
It is obvious to me that microphones differ. I have looked at the info from
Bob Heil on the 'best' amplitude vs. frequency response curves for my source
of what would work best for communications with reasonable voice quality.
My best recollection is that there must be content in

I sold my MH2 a while back as it seemed totally out of character with the K2
even with the Elecraft label. It was way too large, had PTT switch that took
a lot of pressure to operate, and had too stiff a coiled cord.
The K2 also allows for function buttons on the mic to switch VFOs. It would be
I picked up the MC-43S because because they jumper straight across, I used
computer jumpers and didn't connect the 5 volt.
It was easier than trying to come up with some header so I could use my Yaesu

For the small amount of SSB I operate I use the Kenwood MC-60
desk mic. Always get good audio reports.
